I need a little information.

Ive been trying to make backups of my backedup dreamcast games, but to no avail. I read numerous guides and sites plus the Discjuggler faq by isonews.com but it didnt help me any. Ive gone through alot of cdrs because of this problem. Im realitivly new to all of this, so any help would be appreciated.

Ive tried 2 ways, both were done with discjuggler, and neither of them worked. Discjuggler locked up on both. A few times it got to 3% then got stuck and a few times it got nearly finished but then got stuck. (Both of these methods were taken from some faqs.)

1st method:

Put your burned Dreamcast CD in your CD-ROM reader or your CD-R Drive and choose the project 'CD-Player to Image'. Select a name for your image that is going to be created (don't forget to set image size to 80 minutes in 'options' and go in 'advanced' and check 'ignore errors') then press 'start'. Once it's done, just close the window and choose 'No' when the program asks you if you want to save the project. Open a new project and choose 'Image to CD-Recorder' then select the image you've just created before, insert a blank CD-R and press 'start'. It's recommended to use Discjuggler 3.x if you want to backup burned Dreamcast CD as it contains less bugs and more compatibility.

2nd method:

Open 'DiscJuggler'.
Select 'New' and then choose 'CD Copy from the Same Recorder'
Insert the game you want to copy into your burner
In the 'Action' box choose 'Write'
In the 'Advanced' tab choose 'Overburn' and leave the other settings as they are
Hit 'Start'. It will create a temp image on your hard drive.
Insert a blank CDR in the drive
Press 'OK'

If there is anything else I might have left out that you would like to know, please ask.

First off, the second method, you don't need to mess with ANYTHING in the advanced tab, leave as is, if your burning from 80min to 80min CD-R, there is no need to overburn.

Discjuggler has never once locked up on me, it will finish up, remain at 99% or 100% for awhile, with the buffer at 100% and then after about 1 or 2 minutes, the buffer will slow go down, once it is all the way down, about another minute or two and my CDs will be nice and toasty and full of data.

Never once burned a frisbee in DJ.
